Who wants to host one locally next year? Tips for Composting Pumpkins: • Smash up any rinds and guts before mixing them into your backyard pile with plenty of carbon sources (leaves, wood chips, twigs, etc.). 0 Be sure to remove any candles, wax, or lights from your spooky creation, and avoid composting any painted or glittered pumpkins. • Removing seeds ahead of time can help prevent growing pumpkin plants in your compost pile later. TAUGHANNOCK PARK CONSTRUCTION: Due to construction at the park some hiking trails are closed or re-routed. Visit their Facebook page or call (607)387-6739 for the latest updates.
